World Conference on Special Needs Education: Access and Quality, Salamanca, Spain, 1994

‘Every child has a fundamental right to education, and must be given the opportunity to achieve and maintain an acceptable level of learning. Every child has unique characteristics, interests, abilities and learning needs. Education systems should be designed and educational programmes implemented to take into account the wide diversity of these characteristics and needs. Those with special educational needs must have access to regular schools which should accommodate them within a child-centred pedagogy capable of meeting these needs.’ World Conference on Special Needs Education, Salamanca, Spain, 1994
